Sadie Sink Reveals Why She Went Vegan at 14
Sadie Sink is an actress who plays Jean Grey in the new Spider-Man movie.
She is also famous for playing Max in the TV show Stranger Things.
When she was 14 years old, she decided to become vegan.
Vegans do not eat meat, eggs, or dairy, and they try not to use animal products.
Before that, she had been vegetarian for one year.
While filming a movie called The Glass Castle, she spent time with actor Woody Harrelson, who is vegan too.
She learned about what happens in the egg and dairy industries and decided to go vegan right away.
She also checks her clothes to make sure they do not contain animal materials.
She believes everyone can help animals by choosing what they eat and what they wear.
Sadie Sink has been vegan since age 14, a decision she revealed in a 2018 interview with Elle.
She had been vegetarian for one year before going vegan while shooting The Glass Castle.
Sink said spending time with vegan co-star Woody Harrelson influenced her plant-based lifestyle.
She said realizing 'what goes on in the egg industry, and the dairy industry' made her go vegan 'cold turkey.'
She also advocates for animal rights through cruelty-free food, fashion, and clothing choices.
